Cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation and stage 4 –5 chronic kidney disease receiving direct oral anticoagulants: a multicenter retrospective cohort study
AbstractThe role of direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and stage 4 –5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) is controversial. Electronic medical records from 2012 to 2021 were retrieved for patients with AF and stage 4–5 CKD receiving oral anticoagulants. Patients were separated into those receiving DOACs (dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, or edoxaban) or vitamin K ant agonists (VKA). Primary outcomes included ischemic stroke (IS), systemic thrombosis (SE), major bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding, hemorrhagic stroke, acute myocardial infarction, cardiovascular death, and all-cause dea...

Effectiveness and safety of direct oral anticoagulants versus warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation and advanced kidney disease
ConclusionAmong patients with AF and AKD, DOACs were linked to a lower risk of ischemic events, and apixaban was linked to a lower risk of any ischemia and any bleeding than warfarin.

The Impact of Polypharmacy on the Effectiveness and Safety of Non-vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation
CONCLUSION: Polypharmacy was associated with increased thromboembolic, bleeding, and mortality risks in AF patients. NOACs had better benefit-risk profiles than VKAs in patients with polypharmacy.PMID:37369234 | DOI:10.1055/s-0043-1769735

Direct oral anticoagulants: patient reported adherence and minor bleedings
AbstractData regarding adherence and minor bleeding on direct oral anticoagulants in everyday life are still sparse. Inclusion criteria: treatment initiated with dabigatran, rivaroxaban or apixaban in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients from a center in northern Sweden between 2011 and 2019 (n  = 668). Exclusion criteria: cognitive impairment, dose dispensing, need of interpreter or hospital admission (n = 67). By a telephone interview adherence was measured in 569 patients (response rate 94.8%) using the 8-item Morisky medication adherence scale and minor bleeding was asked for. CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED sco...

Standard operating procedure for idarucizumab reversal of dabigatran anticoagulation in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke
Conclusion: Reversal of dabigatran with idarucizumab in stroke patients appears easy to manage, safe and beneficial. The SOPs aim to reassure stroke physicians to include dabigatran reversal into their daily clinical routine when dealing with patients presenting with ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke under dabigatran therapy.

Reduced dose direct oral anticoagulants compared with warfarin with high time in therapeutic range in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
The objective of this study was to compare effectiveness and safety between reduced dose DOACs and high TTR warfarin treatment (TTR  ≥ 70%) in NVAF. A Swedish anticoagulation registry was used in identifying eligible patients from July 2011 to December 2017. The study cohort consisted of 40,564 patients with newly initiated DOAC (apixaban, dabigatran, or rivaroxaban) (11,083 patients) or warfarin treatment (29,481 patients ) after exclusion of 374,135 patients due to not being warfarin or DOAC naïve, not being prescribed reduced dose, having previous mechanical heart valve (MHV), or being under 18 years old. The me...

Effectiveness and safety of oral anticoagulants in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients with prior bleeding events: a retrospective analysis of administrative claims databases
ConclusionsIn this real-world analysis of a large sample of NVAF patients with prior bleeding, NOACs were associated with similar or lower risk of stroke/SE and MB vs. warfarin and variable risk of stroke/SE and MB against each other.

Monitoring of Direct Oral Anticoagulants Plasma Levels for Secondary Stroke Prevention
CONCLUSIONS: Monitoring of DOAC plasma levels could help to identify patients with increased risk for stroke recurrence and should be considered for certain subgroups, including patients with high GFR.PMID:35171533 | DOI:10.1111/jth.15677

Thrombin in complex with dabigatran can still interact with PAR-1 via exosite-I and instigate loss of vascular integrity
CONCLUSIONS: Proteolytically inactive thrombin in complex with dabigatran evokes loss of barrier function that can be prevented by a PAR-1 mimicking peptide blocking thrombin's exosite-I.PMID:35037739 | DOI:10.1111/jth.15642

Appropriateness of inpatient dosing of direct oral anticoagulants for atrial fibrillation
The objective was to determine the rates of inappropriate inpatient DOAC dosing in AF and identifying its associated underlying factors. We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study from December 2013 to November 2019 across six South Australian public hospitals utilising a centralised electronic health record. Multivariate analysis was used to identify factors associated with underdosing of patients prescribed apixaban. Of 1882 inpatients, 544 (28.9  %) were inappropriately dosed. Underdosing was the most common form of inappropriate dosing with rates of 22.9 % (n = 295), 7.1 % (n = 7), and 25.1 % (n...

Dose Specific Effectiveness and Safety of DOACs in Patients with Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation: a Canadian Retrospective Cohort Study
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been proven to be effective and safe for prevention of ischemic stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). However, suboptimal adherence, variable dosing and use in patient populations that otherwise would have been excluded from clinical trials may impact the efficacy and safety profile of DOACs in a routine care setting. We compared stroke, bleeding, and mortality rates on and off therapy for standard and low-dose DOACs (apixaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran) versus warfarin in a Canadian cohort.
